Even the Simpsons get involved with the Apple product frenzy as an Apple Store hits the Springfield Mall.
Everybody wants to get their hands on a "Mypod."
As we eluded to below, Sarah Palin ran into trouble the other day as she was conducting an interview, totally oblivious to the turkey slaughter going on over her shoulder.
Now, David Letterman mocks the incident for her Top 10 excuses list.
Darrell Hammond showed up on Weekend Update on SNL to do Bill Clinton. Clinton discusses the benefits of being "Mr. Secretary of State."
The election is far over, but somehow we are still mezmerized by Sarah Palin.
This has to be seen to believe. She conducts an interview, while turkeys are being slaughtered in the background.
Don't eat beforehand (or during).
An interesting thing happened at the G20 summit the other day.
President Bush walks by a line of world leaders without shaking or being asked to shake any of their hands. Whether the President is being rejected by the world leaders or he is rejecting them, CNN's Rick Sanchez said that Bush looks like "the most unpopular kid in high school that nobody liked." Watch.
The new Star Trek trailer came out this week, taking us to the beginning when Kirk and Spock were younger.

The Colbert Xmas Show hype is in full swing, with a new song on our Sights and Sounds Audio Page, and now a preview with a singing Jon Stewart?!!

SNL had a few good moments Saturday night, which had Paul Rudd as host.
Rudd's bit on the Kissing Family and Justin Timberlake's Weekend Update cameo were highlights.
Yes kids, there were fireworks galore as Bill O' Reilly was a guest on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.
It was nice seeing Stewart console Reilly regarding Obama's win by giving him a teddybear that he could hug though.
We got to hear O' Reilly's bloated banter for two parts. Yaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy!
Part 1
Part 2

Pixar has a new offering for the first part of 2009 called "Up," about a crusty old man who leaves earth. His house gets ripped out of it's foundation by balloons and he's transported through the sky.
Doesn't sound great on paper, but it is Pixar, so I'm sure it will be something to see.
Supermodel Heidi Klum is the latest celebrity to strip down for the latest Guitar Hero commercial. In a throw back to Tom Cruise's pant less dance in "Risky Business," Klum strums a guitar dances to "Old Time Rock and Roll," while hopping on a table and dancing on a couch. Lots of gyrating, waving the hair around and generally causing sensory overload.
Both Barack Obama and John McCain were interviewed as part of Monday Night Football last night, as Chris Berman reached back-back-back into his notepad and gave out tough softballs like "What's the one thing you've learned during your campaign?" Nice.
I was waiting for some nicknames like "Barack You Like A Hurricane," or John "Raisin' McCain."
Didn't happen, damn it.

That brings up another point-when is the last time you heard "SNL" and "lovefest" used in a sentence?
In case you missed Conan last night (10/28), Fey talked about Sarah Palin offering her daughter to babysit Fey's daughter on Bristol's birthday. btw. As if Bristol doesn't have her own kid to worry about.

Prepare to laugh out loud.
